Serum glycosylated Wisteria floribunda agglutinin‐positive Mac‐2 binding protein (WFA+‐M2BP) is a reliable, non‐invasive marker of liver fibrosis. This study assessed the ability of WFA+‐M2BP to diagnose liver fibrosis in patients with chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection and evaluated WFA+‐M2BP as a predictor of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) development.
